Today's New International Version Help
21The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur son of Malkijah and the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah. They said:H1697H3414H3068H4428H6667H7971H6583H1121H4441H6846H1121H4641H3548H559
2"Inquire now of the LORD for us because Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is attacking us. Perhaps the LORD will perform wonders for us as in times past so that he will withdraw from us."H1875H3068H1157H5019H4428H894H3898H3068H6213H6381H5927
3But Jeremiah answered them, "Tell Zedekiah,H559H3414H559H6667
4'This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I am about to turn against you the weapons of war that are in your hands, which you are using to fight the king of Babylon and the Babylonians who are outside the wall besieging you. And I will gather them inside this city.H559H3068H430H3478H5437H3627H4421H3027H3898H4428H894H3778H6696H2351H2346H622H8432H5892
5I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and a mighty arm in furious anger and in great wrath.H3898H5186H3027H2389H2220H639H2534H1419H7110
6I will strike down those who live in this city—both people and animals—and they will die of a terrible plague.H5221H3427H5892H120H929H4191H1419H1698
7After that, declares the LORD, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah, his officials and the people in this city who survive the plague, sword and famine, into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and to their enemies who seek their lives. He will put them to the sword; he will show them no mercy or pity or compassion.'H310H5002H3068H5414H6667H4428H3063H5650H5971H7604H5892H1698H2719H7458H3027H5019H4428H894H3027H341H3027H1245H5315H5221H6310H2719H2347H2550H7355
8"Furthermore, tell the people, 'This is what the LORD says: See, I am setting before you the way of life and the way of death.H5971H559H559H3068H5414H6440H1870H2416H1870H4194
9Whoever stays in this city will die by the sword, famine or plague. But whoever goes out and surrenders to the Babylonians who are besieging you will live; they will escape with their lives.H3427H5892H4191H2719H7458H1698H3318H5307H3778H6696H2421H2421H5315H7998
10I have determined to do this city harm and not good, declares the LORD. It will be given into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will destroy it with fire.'H7760H6440H5892H7451H2896H5002H3068H5414H3027H4428H894H8313H784
11"Moreover, say to the royal house of Judah, 'Hear the word of the LORD.H1004H4428H3063H8085H1697H3068
12This is what the LORD says to you, house of David: " 'Administer justice every morning; rescue from the hands of their oppressors those who have been robbed, or my wrath will break out and burn like fire because of the evil you have done—burn with no one to quench it.H1004H1732H559H3068H1777H4941H1242H5337H1497H3027H6231H2534H3318H784H1197H3518H6440H7455H4611
13I am against you, Jerusalem, you who live above this valley on the rocky plateau, declares the LORD—you who say, "Who can come against us? Who can enter our refuge?"H3427H6010H6697H4334H5002H3068H559H5181H935H4585
14I will punish you as your deeds deserve, declares the LORD. I will kindle a fire in your forests that will consume everything around you.' "H6485H6529H4611H5002H3068H3341H784H3293H398H5439
